NOTE: This also required some changes to Cycles code itself, who is now
directly including `BKE_image.hh` instead of declaring a few prototypes
of these functions in its `blender/utils.h` header (due to C++ functions
names mangling, this was not working anymore).

This commit adds low-level logic in BKE to support three behaviors in
case of name conflict when renaming an ID:
1. Always tweak new name of the renamed ID (never modify the other ID
name).
2. Always set requested name in renamed ID, modifying as needed the
other ID name.
3. Only modify the other ID name if it shares the same root name with the
current renamed ID's name.
It also adds quite some changes to IDTemplate, Outliner code, and
RNA-defined UILayout code, and the lower-level UI button API, to allow
for the new behavior defined in the design (i.e. option three from above list).
When renaming from the UI either 'fails' (falls back to adjusted name) or forces
renaming another ID, an INFO report is displayed.
This commit also fixes several issues in existing code, especially
regarding undo handling in rename operations (which could lead to saving
the wrong name in undo step, and/or over-generating undo steps).
API wise, the bahavior when directly assigning a name to the `ID.name`
property remains unchanged (option one from the list above). But a new
API call `ID.rename` has been added, which offers all three behaviors.
Unittests were added to cover the new implemented behaviors (both at
BKE level, and the RNA/Py API).
This commit implements #119139 design.

The depsgraph CoW mechanism is a bit of a misnomer. It creates an
evaluated copy for data-blocks regardless of whether the copy will
actually be written to. The point is to have physical separation between
original and evaluated data. This is in contrast to the commonly used
performance improvement of keeping a user count and copying data
implicitly when it needs to be changed. In Blender code we call this
"implicit sharing" instead. Importantly, the dependency graph has no
idea about the _actual_ CoW behavior in Blender.
Renaming this functionality in the despgraph removes some of the
confusion that comes up when talking about this, and will hopefully
make the depsgraph less confusing to understand initially too. Wording
like "the evaluated copy" (as opposed to the original data-block) has
also become common anyway.

The `object_to_world` and `world_to_object` matrices are set during
depsgraph evaluation, calculated from the object's animated location,
rotation, scale, parenting, and constraints. It's confusing and
unnecessary to store them with the original data in DNA.
This commit moves them to `ObjectRuntime` and moves the matrices to
use the C++ `float4x4` type, giving the potential for simplified code
using the C++ abstractions. The matrices are accessible with functions
on `Object` directly since they are used so commonly. Though for write
access, directly using the runtime struct is necessary.
The inverse `world_to_object` matrix is often calculated before it's
used, even though it's calculated as part of depsgraph evaluation.
Long term we might not want to store this in `ObjectRuntime` at all,
and just calculate it on demand. Or at least we should remove the
redundant calculations. That should be done separately though.

Replace the import/export of armature layers with bone collections.
The Old Way:
- Export: Each bone would store which armature layer it was on.
- Import: All armature layers that contain at least a bone are shown.
The New Way:
- Export: Each armature contains a list of its bone collections,
including which one is active and which ones are visible.
- Export: Each bone stores which bone collection it is on.
- Import: the above data is simply used as-is.
Due to limitations of the current Collada importer code, each "extra"
tag can only occur once per Collada node. This means that it was
impossible to write a `<collection name="Bones">` tag for each bone
collection, as only one of those would actually be stored by the
importer for further processing. To work around this limitation, all
bone collection related tags store their values as newline-separated
strings. Example:
```
<node id="Armature">
<extra>
<technique profile="blender">
<collections sid="collections" type="string">Layer 1
Layer 3b
Group
That One Bone</collections>
<visible_collections sid="visible_collections" type="string">Layer 1
Layer 3b
That One Bone</visible_collections>
<active_collection sid="active_collection" type="string">That One Bone</active_collection>
</technique>
</extra>
</node>
```
There are a couple of functions that create rna pointers. For example
`RNA_main_pointer_create` and `RNA_pointer_create`. Currently, those
take an output parameter `r_ptr` as last argument. This patch changes
it so that the functions actually return a` PointerRNA` instead of using
the output parameters.
This has a few benefits:
* Output parameters should only be used when there is an actual benefit.
Otherwise, one should default to returning the value.
* It's simpler to use the API in the large majority of cases (note that this
patch reduces the number of lines of code).
* It allows the `PointerRNA` to be const on the call-site, if that is desired.
No performance regression has been measured in production files.
If one of these functions happened to be called in a hot loop where
there is a regression, the solution should be to use an inline function
there which allows the compiler to optimize it even better.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
Using ClangBuildAnalyzer on the whole Blender build, it was pointing
out that BLI_math.h is the heaviest "header hub" (i.e. non tiny file
that is included a lot).
However, there's very little (actually zero) source files in Blender
that need "all the math" (base, colors, vectors, matrices,
quaternions, intersection, interpolation, statistics, solvers and
time). A common use case is source files needing just vectors, or
just vectors & matrices, or just colors etc. Actually, 181 files
were including the whole math thing without needing it at all.
This change removes BLI_math.h completely, and instead in all the
places that need it, includes BLI_math_vector.h or BLI_math_color.h
and so on.
Change from that:
- BLI_math_color.h was included 1399 times -> now 408 (took 114.0sec
to parse -> now 36.3sec)
- BLI_simd.h 1403 -> 418 (109.7sec -> 34.9sec).
Full rebuild of Blender (Apple M1, Xcode, RelWithDebInfo) is not
affected much (342sec -> 334sec). Most of benefit would be when
someone's changing BLI_simd.h or BLI_math_color.h or similar files,
that now there's 3x fewer files result in a recompile.

If we change the radius of a point or spot lamp, we also change the area lamp size.
As shown in T102853, this is bad for animating the lamp type.
The solution is to make the property point to another member of the DNA
struct `Light`.

The members `soft`, `bleedbias`, `bleedexp` and `contact_spread` were
deprecated in rBd8aaf25c23fa, and are no longer really used.
`soft` is only used by Collada as an extra value for exporting and
importing Blender files in collada.
`bleedexp` and `contact_spread` are only used in versioning to
initialize a default value.

Motivation is to disambiguate on the naming level what the matrix
actually means. It is very easy to understand the meaning backwards,
especially since in Python the name goes the opposite way (it is
called `world_matrix` in the Python API).
It is important to disambiguate the naming without making developers
to look into the comment in the header file (which is also not super
clear either). Additionally, more clear naming facilitates the unit
verification (or, in this case, space validation) when reading an
expression.
This patch calls the matrix `object_to_world` which makes it clear
from the local code what is it exactly going on. This is only done
on DNA level, and a lot of local variables still follow the old
naming.
A DNA rename is setup in a way that there is no change on the file
level, so there should be no regressions at all.
The possibility is to add `_matrix` or `_mat` suffix to the name
to make it explicit that it is a matrix. Although, not sure if it
really helps the readability, or is it something redundant.

These functions are almost identical, the main difference being
BLI_join_dirfile didn't trim existing slashes when joining paths
however this isn't an important difference that warrants a separate
function.
Related to {D15885} that requires scene parameter
to be added in many places. To speed up the review process
the adding of the scene parameter was added in a separate
patch.

We now import and apply custom normals using a similar strategy
to the STL importer. We store custom normal data for each loop
as we read each MPoly and then apply it to the mesh after
`BKE_mesh_calc_edges()` is called.
The new behavior is optional and may be disabled in the Collada import
UI. When disabled, we use the old behavior of only using normals
to determine whether or not to smooth shade an MPoly.
----
Patch as requested in {T49814}.
The Collada import UI now has an additional checkbox, similar to the glTF and FBX import UIs:
{F13428264}
Here is a test Collada file with a simple test cube with flipped custom normals:
{F13428260}
{F13428282}
And a sphere where the two halves are disconnected geometry, but has custom normals that make the halves appear to be connected:
{F13436363}
{F13436368}
I've tested it on a number of my own meshes, and the custom normals appear to be imported
correctly. I'm not too sure about how I've plumbed the option down, though, or whether this
is the most proper way to apply custom normals.

Fixes issues in importers written in C++ (T100737):
- Materials had one reference count too much. Affected Collada,
Alembic, USD, OBJ importers, looks like "since forever".
- Active material index was not properly set on imported meshes.
Regression since 3.3 (D15145). Affected Alembic, USD, OBJ. Note:
now it sets the first material as the active one, whereas
previously the last one was set as active. First one sounds more
"intuitive" to me.
